And we have a Friday Five
1) What act of kindness have you witnessed (or done yourself) recently?
My neighbour Helen keeps an eye open for those idiot couriers who lob things over the wall and has brought two into me recently. i always ask if she needs anything if i go to the shop for milk, so we help each other, which is nice, yes?
2) What is your favourite memory?
i'm lucky that i have some, mostly with friends. Not any one in particular, so i'm happy that none drives forward on its own
3) What activity always seems to energize you?
Getting down to do anything is often an effort of will, what with being bone lazy and none too spry to boot! i do feel better when i've completed a job i've set myself.
4) Did you do something recently that made you laugh at yourself? What was it?
Sorry to be negative but could use a laugh! Not much to laugh about just now
5) What is your favourite inspirational quote?
oh dear, i'm not big on 'inspirational' quotes. A favourite saying of my father's and mine is 'Nil Desperandum' - don't despair, or in our version, 'Don't let the bastards grind you down'!
Damned cold just now, to the extent of having the heating on a lot. i tend to run it during the day and turn it off in the early evening. i have a small electric heater that i use in the sitting room and that is enough - with the door closed and draught excluded at the door!
